Van Breda's steps towards a more sustainable future
At Van Breda, we believe that our responsibility extends beyond our immediate surroundings. We want to have a positive impact on society. Social commitment is therefore high on our list of priorities.
Warm care with innovative technology
We develop care innovations that improve the quality of life of people who need help. We believe in warm care, with technology playing a supporting role. For example, we make smart aids that give clients more autonomy and safety.
Van Breda's steps towards a sustainable future
We take our social responsibility seriously; we do this through various initiatives:
- Second life for our used ICT equipment: Upon replacement, we donate our used ICT equipment to welfare organisations, giving it a new life and contributing to digital inclusion.
- Social craftsmanship: Our products are assembled in social workshops, where craftsmanship is key and where we work together to create employment opportunities for people distanced from the labour market.
- Energy neutral: Our roof will be renewed with enough solar panels to run our office and data centre entirely on solar energy, helping to reduce our carbon emissions.
- Circular packaging: We recycle our packaging material by using bubble wrap and crates to deliver our products. After use, these packages are returned, reducing waste and doing our bit for recycling, while at the same time relieving the burden on installers.
A committed partner
Social commitment is a core value for us. We are proud of what we do and remain continuously committed to making the world a better place.
